A Parisian Caper

A cape may not be an immediate choice for most people to wear. Not everyone can carry it off and not all capes are created wearable. Capes conjure up mystery and drama. A cape can make you think of Dracula, a Master Thespian or a romantic ensemble from Yves Saint Laurent.

RARE vintage is very excited to have found this particular deep red cape by Yves Saint LaurentRive Gauche with oversized pom-poms. It is not too dramatic - just beautiful and romantic. There is a softly draped, gently ruffled collar. And, we confess, that we ADORE the big pom-poms.
